Meet the ‘tweakment’ – a new, invisible approach to cosmetic surgery, pioneered by Dr Marwa Ali.

I prefer a lighthanded approach because the result of any aesthetic procedure should look as natural as possible,” says Dr Marwa Ali, the resident aesthetic doctor at the Harrods Wellness Clinic in London. She’s ditched invasive procedures in favour of ‘tweakments’, backing the revolution sweeping the world of cosmetic surgery.

“Gone are the days of the frozen-forehead look,” she continues. “My patients look well-rested and refreshed rather than ‘done’.”

Dr Ali’s treatments are tailored to her clients’ individual needs and are designed to enhance natural features, rather than overpower them.

She discovered cosmetic dermatology when she was studying at university. “It provided me with the ideal balance between applying my medical knowledge and expressing my artistic flair,” recalls the London born doctor, who’s of Iraqi descent. Since she joined Harrods in 2017, following her work at the prestigious PHI Clinic, she’s treated everyone from London’s high society to Middle Eastern royalty, and her work has been described as close to perfect.
